Anybody else having trouble posting?

Other than having trouble coming up with something worthwhile to say? No.

I'm up, I'm up - finally eight and a half hours of blessed sleep.

Site seems to be quick.

I had trouble posting one post, but it seems to be OK now.

Good ~~morn~~ afternoon, all.

Back from the high school where it feels like I've been since I awoke at 5:15. And what a long morning it was. Cold, too, in their auditorium. A few hours of rest, then back this evening for a concert.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #38 on:** December 16, 2013, 10:58:38 AM »

Thank you, DR Cillaliz, for the birthday greetings last night!

ChasSmith · « **Reply #39 on:** December 16, 2013, 10:58:44 AM »

Boy, I did the right thing getting to bed early. Fortunately, I was dead tired and fell asleep without much delay at all. More importantly, I STAYED asleep till the clock radio and cell phone went off within half a minute of each other.

Good grief, I missed DR ChasSmith's birthday yesterday!!! So here I am to make up for it...

Hope it was a wonderful birthday Charles, and might I add that I am so glad you joined HHW; you are one swell guy!

Late is fine, DR MBarnum. Late is just dandy. Late is not a problem. Thank you!

Monday afternoon greetings! After the previous night's insomnia I crashed early last night and slept almost 12 hours. Richard and I just finished putting about a gazillion ornaments on our Christmas tree.

Christmas Concert vibes for DR CHAS SMITH.

I think we need photographic evidence.

Very interesting . . . a singer whose album I once scored for a combo of around eight players asked me a couple of times in the past about enlarging the orchestrations for full orchestra. Both times I gave him a similar budget, and then I never heard a thing further from him.

I just now on FB saw a photo of him performing one of the numbers from the recording with a full orchestra. Hmmm ...

It's on my Facebook page and I'll put it here when I'm at my computer.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #53 on:** December 16, 2013, 01:06:55 PM »

I've always suspected he found someone cheaper to expand the orchestrations.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #54 on:** December 16, 2013, 01:26:59 PM »

Oy! and damnation.

What you gotta wonder is: how MUCH cheaper?

Nice pic of DR's TCB & George. I'm glad there was a camera yesterday.

Back from a chili, cheese and onion omelet - sitting at the booth next to me - Dick Gautier, second time it's happened and this time I introduced myself and told him we had tons of mutual friends. He's very nice.

DR Jennifer I'm happy you had room to maneuver your car away from the idiot yesterday.

well the tree is lit - all the boxes were pulled out of the crawl space - a job that gets harder every year

My decorations are covered with so much junk I can't even reach them.

From DR TCB:

Quote

This woman came up to me after the show. She said that she loves the movie version of IAWL, and she watches it faithfully every year. And she said she thought I was better than Lionel Barrymore. I don't know about that, but it was a very nice thing for her to say

.

Extremely nice. I hope that eased some of the pain you have been dealing with.

VIBES YOU FEEL BETTER SOON!!!!!
